A shotput thrower releases the shot with a release speed of 15 m/s and a release angle of 42 degrees above the horizontal. The initial height that the thrower releases the shot is 2m. In all the problems ignore the effects of air resistance.

1) What is the max height reached by the shot (relative to the ground)?

2) How long is the shot in the air for?
